So is it August so we of course made the yearly trip to Island Park. Josh, Keegan and I went up a few days early and stayed in a cabin. When everyone else got there we joined them in the campground. If you have read Jacey's blog you will know that this year bears have been spotted in the campground. I was not too excited about this, especially with Keegan sleeping in his own bag this year. So every night I went to bed keeping one ear listening for bear sounds. (not that I really know what a bear sounds like). Josh and Paul did see a bear but it was across the river and didn't seem interested in going for a life threatening swim.
We made it into Yellowstone park a few times. We love that place, even just the drive, we love looking for all of the animals. We saw buffalo, elk, and even a bear and a cub. No moose or wolves to be found.
Keegan decided to wear goggles around the campfire one night. What a nerd.
The black bear and cub that we saw in the park.
Keegan at Old Faithful just before it went off.
Josh and I took a guided fishing trip down the river this year. Here is me with the biggest fish I have ever caught on a fly rod.
Josh with his "trophy" fish. Don't worry all fish were promptly returned to the river. 
This is actually our first night up there, Keegan wanted to go to bed just like this.
We went to the Bear and Wolf Discovery Center in West Yellowstone. This is Keegan inside of a bear trap.
Inside of the gift shop they had a HUGE teddy bear couch. Keegan was scared of it at first.
Keegs eating his very own ice cream cone. He didn't know what to do with the cone once the ice cream was done.
This is Keegs just relaxing, I should say holding still for just 2 seconds.
All in all we had a great trip. We always look forward to going back. Can't wait for next year!
